Dick's Drive-In

What a great dive! This is a walk-up or drive-thru only place! There is a stainless steel standing table for like 8 people if you eat your order there. But don't expect anything else for seating or a table. That said, you can't beat the price and taste! The buns were buttered and toasted to a perfect crispy toasty goodness to compliment the cheap burger it is holding. The fries are Crispy and has the skin on! Which is yummy! The milkshakes are thick and sweet! Definitely will be coming back again and again!

Had to try this local staple. Very simple menu. Very affordable, but you have to pay for any condiments or extras. Solid burger and homemade fries that are not as crispy as the fast food chains ,but seem more natural and not pre- blanched or frozen. It was a cold evening very long line that moved very fast, and a delightful street musician made our experience very pleasant and authentic. Did not try the ice cream or shakes because of the cold weather, will try during summer!

I am obsessed with Dick's. The food comes out instantaneously and is so simple but still so delicious. I also love that the vibe of the restaurant feels very 1950s and vintage. Good fast food, perfect for eating after a night out.

Was told by the Seattle locals that you gotta get a "bag of dicks" while in Washington so while in Capitol Hill I had to try Dicks Drive In 😄 Raised on In n Out so trying this was very underwhelming....place was a bit crowded as its a to go place with a couple of counters if you want to stand and eat too. Ordered a cheeseburger and fries. Cheap eats, fast service but nothing special in terms of recommendation or I gotta go back again. Crossed one off my bucket list though🤙

The side of onions that we ordered with our delicious food tasted like cardboard and was not appealing to look at. They also smelled a lil old. And the line was far too long to go through a second time to have them replaced. But everything else was spot on as always. I LOVE DICKS FRIES!!! 🍟🍟🍟🍟🍟🍟🍟🍟 🍟

Honestly taste like a McDonald’s burger. I also got the plain cheeseburger and it had sauce on it even though the menu specifically said none of that. The service is super fast and food is cheap. Shakes are super good though. Fries are pretty soggy too. Not the best.

Dick's Drive-In: A Timeless Seattle Classic Worth Every Bite Seattle, a city renowned for its progressive culinary scene, is home to many iconic eateries, but none quite hold a candle to the enduring charm of Dick's Drive-In. This beloved burger joint has become more than just a place to eat; it's a part of my life. Every visit to my best friend—or even a solo adventure—would feel incomplete without a stop here. The allure of Dick's lies not only in its nostalgic atmosphere but also in its unpretentious approach to food, serving up satisfying flavors that resonate deeply with both my appetite and fond memories. After my best friend's wedding, I was particularly eager to indulge in a celebratory meal at this cherished spot—a perfect conclusion to a wondrous day filled with joy and love. At the center of my order was the Deluxe Burger, a quintessential representation of Dick's philosophy towards food. Each bite unfurled a rich tapestry of flavors and textures that danced on my palate. The 1/8-pound grilled patties, crafted from 100% real beef, offered a juicy, mouthwatering experience that reminded me of what a good hamburger should taste like: rich and decadent without being overwhelming. The melted American cheese provided a creamy, velvety layer that married perfectly with the tang of freshly shredded lettuce and a splash of tangy-sweet pickle relish. The luscious, creamy mayonnaise elevated the harmonious balance of flavors, all embraced by locally baked buns delivered fresh every morning. It's a burger that thrives on simplicity, free of pretension and gimmicks, celebrating the purity of expertly sourced and prepared ingredients. No visit to Dick's would be complete without indulging in their signature Fries, which honor the region's commitment to quality. These hand-cut fries, crafted from 100% real potatoes, were fried to a delectable golden brown in high oleic sunflower oil—a choice that boasts a clean flavor and caters to those with allergenic sensitivities. Each fry had a delightful crunch, giving way to a fluffy interior seasoned enough to enhance the natural potato flavor without overpowering it. As I savored each bite, I was reminded of the attention to detail that goes into every aspect of this enduring establishment. To round off my meal, I treated myself to a heavenly Strawberry Milkshake. Prepared in an old-fashioned way with 100% real ice cream, the shake was hand-dipped and meticulously whipped to a creamy, luscious consistency. Each sip transported me back to a simpler time, evoking the charm of classic diner fare with just the hint of fruity sweetness lingering on the tongue. The milkshake was both a refreshing delight and a decadent indulgence, perfectly capturing the essence of Dick's—their unwavering commitment to quality shines through every detail. Dick's Drive-In transcends the ordinary bounds of a burger joint; it stands as a revered Seattle institution where memories are forged over hearty, flavorful food that's served with a generous dose of heart. Whether I'm celebrating significant life events or simply succumbing to a craving for the ultimate burger and fries, Dick's provides a timeless experience that draws patrons back again and again. For me, it has become a culinary tradition that harmoniously complements the lively spirit and culture of the Emerald City. The quality and tradition that Dick's embodies is a testament to its unwavering commitment to serving the best to its patrons.

If you're on the hill and you need something hot to eat fast, this is really your one option. The prices are so-so but the burger is the same every time and usually in your hand within a minute of ordering. Fries and shakes are decent. The service is always different, you might get a warm smile and a greeting or a tired glare and raised eyebrows, you take what you get.

The burger here was pretty good. I had the Dick's Special. I normally leave out the pickle when I order a burger and I didn't know that the special comes with a pickle relish, but the burger ended up being better than I expected. The Root Beer Float was very good.

TLDR: Checks the box for overhyped, good fries, okay burger, overly sweet shakes. Ended up eating a second dinner elsewhere out of dissatisfaction. - - - - - - My Seattle friends hailed Dick's Drive-In as the In-N-Out equivalent, but I've found it quite different. I didn't quite see a drive-thru, but there was ample parking for quick bites (20 min) in their small lot. I ordered a deluxe with fries and a strawberry shake. The first thing I noticed was how quick order pickup was - literally instant, er within 10 seconds. The deluxe was a classic burger - by no means bad - dominated with flavors of cheese and mustard. The bun was a classic hamburger bun with no frills; overall, it felt like eating a plain hamburger drowned in cheese and mustard - meh. The fries were nice, though there was a 20 cent cost for sauce. I went with the tartar which also had a slight mustard-y taste. The fries were a limp texture but clean and had a slightly crip texture. They were not the largest portions but a nice snack. The strawberry shake, unfortunately, was over the top sweet and had to be tossed. If there was a way to drink strawberry flavored heavy cream with spoonfuls of sugar, this might be it.

First, we'll start with the name. It shouldn't really be called Dick's Drive-In. More like Dick's Park-n-Puke. If you've ever wondered why comics say "eat a bag of Dick's" as an insult? Dick's Drive-In is the answer. By far the _worst_ burger with a reputation I've ever experienced in my life. When I ask Seattleites about it they all cite how Dick's is iconic yet every one of them says "But the burgers aren't great". Yeah. No s**t. I've been in San Antonio, Austin, San Francisco, Los Angeles, and now Seattle for the last 4 years. Worst. Burger. Ever. Even corporate fast food burgers are better. I am convinced that the only reason Dick's stay in business is because they thrive after midnight when everyone else is closed, and the patrons are all too drunk to know how bad the food is or even notice it is drowning in that special "sauce". Do yourself a favor, and make sure you are good and drunk (or high af) before you go. Then maybe you'll think it is the best burger ever. Because ... you know ... you're too drunk or high to know better.

To me this feels like Washington's in'n'out coming from someone who grew up in LA. The food was good and the service was great. It has a great 50s diner and drive in vibe. Definitely a place to visit when visiting washington as long as you get tartar sauce. If you don't it's not nearly as good.

Convenient, cheap, & easy, Dick's Drive-In is a great place to stop for a quick lunch or perhaps a late night snack after a night of drinking with friends! It's not often you get a hamburger, fries, and milkshake for under $13 -- and it's not like they substitute quality for their speed. Like, yeah, it's not going to be the best burger you've ever had, but unless you're actively looking to be disappointed, you should enjoy the meal just fine. The staff was perfectly polite and very proficient, making sure the line moved smoothly and efficiently.

This place is great. I don't think I've ever been disappointed here. The customer service is top notch and burgers still amazing. I always get 2 deluxe and a fries. Prolly the best fries on the hill too. They also treat their employees very well.

This will have to be the biggest foodie adventure let down from my Seattle visit. Let me start off by saying the cashiers are super nice and chill. They answered my questions in such a nice and patient manner. There have been many websites and youtube videos stating that this burger joint was a must to visit in Seattle. I ordered the Dick's deluxe, and was super unimpressed. It's sad to say, but I'd take a McDonald's burger over this burger and honestly......McDonald's is at the bottom of the barrel for burger places I'd get a burger from. Everything in the burger just tasted like poor quality ingredients. Fries were super soggy, under seasoned, and sad looking. Louie gives Dick's Drive-In a 2 star for great service but terrible food. If you are visiting from another state, you will be more than okay skipping this foodie spot.

Great burgers at fantastic prices! Not as good as Five Guys but way more worth the price. I got a small lemonade, which was what I wanted most. The deluxe burger was fine, the fries were really good!

Great prices, fast service, free parking, decent burgers and good fries. It looks like most people eat in their car. There is a standing only communal counter that is available if you would rather eat outside your car or you walk/bike up.

Dick's Drive-In does not allow any changes to their burgers, so their service is as quick as possible. The whole interaction with the employee was incredibly fast, I think that I received my burger in less than a minute. I only ordered the Dick's Deluxe and I'd say that it was a solid burger. The burger was not as filling as I'd hoped it would be, so it's a little pricy for what it's worth. All in all, it's a good burger if you are feeling peckish and are short on time.

As a California Native, I'm pretty much a die-hard In-N-Out fan, but I was willing to try Dick's in order to experience what the people of Seattle knew and loved. I knew going into it that it would be disappointing, yet somehow it still subceeded all my expectations for what a burger should be. It's not even in the same league as what In-N-Out is in California. Cheap burgers, but they charge extra for each of the sauces or add-ons. Not very satisfying to eat as they're small, lukewarm, and the quality of ingredients are subpar; At the same price you get a much better deal at McDonalds, which is saying a lot. No indoor dining area, and maybe only like 5 menu items: four variations of the same burger, and fries. The fries look a dark brown, almost burnt color, yet are soggy. The only plus side is that you get the burger immediately.

The burgers aren't really anything "special", but when you factor in the affordability with the quality of it, I gotta rate it pretty high. But to me, the star of the show is definitely the fries. Nothing beats the fresh-cut fries from here. Service is generally pretty quick even when it's busy. The parking lot at this location is a decent size, but with customers dropping in and usually dipping out right away, parking isn't terribly hard to come by.

After months having moved here, I finally tried the infamous late night Dick's. I won't lie - I had a great meal. But 11pm meals always hit different. For the price, it's amazing (relative to everywhere else). I enjoyed my burger and shake. It's nothing crazy special, but it does hit the spot. I'm from CA and controversial opinion but I don't think In-n-Out is that amazing. I actually think I enjoyed Dick's more. The reason for a 4 is because their fries were a bit subpar - not the most flavorful or crispy (unlike McDonald's on a good day). Still good late at night though! 4 cause fries don't lie

A Seattle staple for sure! Dick's is pretty mid, but somehow it's a must in Seattle. Especially when it's open until 2am. With the lack of fast food in Seattle, Dick's can satisfy the craving. Everything is super cheap but you get what you pay for. The fries are kinda soggy and plain. The burger was okay. The milkshakes are pretty good though. A must after a night out in cap hill.

First stop when we got off the plane and Dicks didn't disappoint. We just wanted a quick bite before heading home. The burgers were good for the price, patty reminded me of a McDonald's patty but the sauce they use is next level. The service was great and we got our food within minutes of ordering. The fries were ok, they are made with fresh potatoes but aren't crisp at all. The shake however was awesome! Super thick and creamy. I got the vanilla and it did not disappoint. If you're in need a quick late night bite this is the place!

A Seattle staple! Got 1 special, 2 cheeseburgers, and 1 fry. I still prefer the cheeseburgers since I'm not the biggest fan of their sauce they use in their special. Downside, I did notice the fries got a lot less. Tight parking in the area, especially when it gets late at night for some munchies.

Dick's Drive-In feels like a very old-school classic fast-food burger joint. There are several ordering windows that guests can line up at and they move pretty quickly. We tried the Deluxe Burger, the Special Burger, and an order of fries. A note on pricing: condiments cost extra, and there's a sugar tax applied to the sodas. The Deluxe burger comes with cheese and two burger patties whereas the Special burger has a single patty. I was a bit disappointed with Special. The patty was pretty dry and there wasn't too much flavor. I did really like the bun though, it was soft and yummy, and probably my favorite part of the burger. The Deluxe burger was much better. The two patties were more flavorful and juicier than the Special.

I have not yet had a good meal at Dick's. The burgers are usually overcooked, squished down, tasteless and highly overrated like this entire chain. I won't be back. I gave it three shots be a use of convenient location and lunchtime. That was my misfortune and bad decision making.

I love burgers. This spot came highly recommended as a local joint that's a staple in the city. They did warn be that all burgers are cooked the same. It's not very pricy--and wasn't much of a step up from getting something at chain burger joint. I expected more. I was a bit disappointed in the quality

When we asked our friend who grew up in Seattle where to eat on our trip, he recommended trying Dick's burgers. J ordered a hamburger with a side of onions and fries. (note: the onions are like the ones you put on a hotdog, rather than onion rings). Considering the hamburger + fries was under $5, it was a solid meal. The burger was a bit soggy as they don't toast their buns, but the meat was decent and the fries were pretty good. Overall, the quality was on par with the affordable price point, but the LA in me is just biased towards in-n-out. If you want the Seattle experience though, I'd recommend giving it a shot at least once!

Food ready in about 5 min Service was on point Ambiance was grab and go type of feeling Definitely the spot for a quick burger and fries! Prices are excellent and will update with photos on my next visit!

Well this old sturdy drive through just keeps on kicking. If you are looking for a decent hangover cure which is a lot better and cheaper than fast food places this is the place for sure. The deluxe burger is quick and easy but make sure you order the side ketchup and tater sauce. Also the mint chip ice cream with hot fudge was the thing that pulled everything together. I was honestly surprised that this staple of a business offers their employees benefits. I mean you are talking about scholarships, health care, paid community service, and more. For a business like this that is an added bonus. I mean you have to be crazy to not love Dick's after hearing how much they invest into their employees.

Dick's Drive-In has been around since the early '50s, and they offer a quick burger-shake-fries experience for those on the go. The menu offers burgers made with 100% real beef that is supposedly delivered fresh and never frozen on a daily basis; fries, shakes, ice cream, and drinks (soda, milk, coffee, and hot chocolate). I came here for lunch, and ordered the following items: +2 Deluxes - came with two 1/8 lb grilled patties, melted cheese, lettuce, mayo, and pickle relish +fries - comes as one size; made with pacific northwest potatoes that are hand-cut daily and fried in sunflower oil The meal was okay; the burgers were a little bland and dried out, and I think it would have been better if we requested extra mayo. Wasn't really a fan of the buns, as they seemed slightly stale. The fries were piping hot and were a good side order. Staff were efficient and moved the line along. The orders come out quickly, and there seems to be a line here, whatever the time of the day it was. Glad I was able to check this place out while visiting the area, but not sure if I'd go out of my way to return. +dried patties & buns +hand-cut fries +efficient service

Dicks is the White Castle of Seattle. A place where the drunk and high go to get food. I went to have my kiddo experience it. The lines are long but it goes quickly. The shakes were good and the fries are like a thinner version of Five Guys. Burger were meh. Ketchup for fries will set you back .20. It's a fun spot to people watch.

Disappointed with the quality of the product. Lacking attention to detail. McDonald's, Burger King and Carls Jr make a higher quality Burger. Bun was second rate, patty was not flavorful and condiments were an upgrade. Two stars is being generous.

Every once in a while, stars align. For me, that alignment was on Jan 24, 2023. Dick's was celebrating its 69th anniversary and hamburgers plus cheeseburgers were 19¢ a piece (one per person for up to 5 people who all had to be present to redeem the offer). Well, despite having lunch plans, I got in line right when the restaurant opened. As expected, there were already people waiting. It took 10 to 20 minutes (during which time two lines became three and I saw a person with a big fluffy white dog who came five minutes after me get his order first) for me to order and get my food, but for $3.13 total, it was totally worth it. Heck, if I paid the normal price for the burger, it still would have been worth it. Was this the best burger of my life? No, but the value was excellent. When you just want something quick and cheap, Dick's has got to be the place to go in Seattle. I wish we had something like it on the East Coast!

What I Ordered: Dick's Deluxe * basic cheeseburger that has an overpowering mustard sauce taste French Fries * very crispy * good late night option 6.5/10

They always don't have 4 hamburgers available. I spoke with their management about this and they said it's because people dont order them that often. But I can go to McDonald's or any fast food restaurant in the area and there is no wait for 4 hamburgers. So the excuse doesn't really stand. I think they just do that to push the higher priced menu items to make more money. In fact that's what the offer you if you ask for 4. Kinda a bad practice. Just sell them if they're on the menu or don't sell them. It's not complicated.

I was informed that this is a local staple, so had to try it while I was in town, and finally grabbed some after work, on our way to the Storm game. Short, simple menu. I asked for the Deluxe (double burger with lettuce, cheese, relish and mayo). My boyfriend ordered the same, but with sides of ketchup and mustard. He said we'd only order one fry to share, because they portions were decent. And we got diet cokes... though we had to repeat that part about three times, because it was too loud for our cashier to hear us and he kept thinking we were saying Sprite. Oh, and tartar sauce. Service was super quick, we got our food before we paid. I was happy with the burger for the price, it was tasty and just the right size for a meal. My boyfriend was disappointed with the serving size of the fry, and I admit we would've liked a few more in there. I am picky about fries (I STRONGLY DISLIKE Five Guys fries, and get so much guff about it, but sorry, they're floppy and bland and have never had a good one, I don't care how much they dump in the bag), but really did enjoy these. The fries were thin enough that they had crispy bits throughout, but just enough bend to to mix up the texture, and the flavor was good.

One star for price and hours One star for people watching. This is a review of their basic generic burger only. I did not try the fries or the shakes which would be attractive in drunk dark thirty, though I was there late for the full experience. The basic burger is a yeasty sweet bun with a small diameter (1/8 pound 2 ounce) bland machine burger. The Dick's business plan is bland, then charge extra for taste. The is no salt or pepper on the basic burger. That may be healthy for people whose sodium intake for health reasons is more important than taste. Some people need a medically bland diet, get Dick's basic burger! So I add them to my bland collection. On the burger, Dicks has several (profitable) upgrades from bland. But within those upgrade options there is no customization. Their web shows more options than their site menu. The solution is to carry with you your own salt, pepper, and condiments! Pick your location. Capital Hill is Capitol Hill (I visited) and Wallingford / U-District is that vibe. Dick's is an institution everyone should experience as a part of Seattle history and culture. Cheap food for expensive Seattle. Vintage buildings. Great for selfies. If you want good food, been around a while in Seattle, the PCC Community Markets deli bars are the daytime to go.

Awful. Greasy, bland, unimaginative, unhealthy. Smattering of chopped lettuce in thin mayo complements a production line meat patty between unremarkable buns. Fails hype miserably.

Anyone who is Seattle native is going to tell you two things: 1) Dicks is the best burger 2) If you don't agree, you're not drunk enough And that's really all you need to know. By that logic, the burger you get at any hot bar at a gas station convenience store could also be extraordinary given enough booze. But don't come here under the illusion that it competes with other US regional greats like In & Out or Culvers. It doesn't even compete with the major chains for taste; I'd take a McDonald's cheeseburger over burgers at Dicks any day. What you're getting is a cheap sandwich with deep civic sentimentality attached to it. The End. Remember, this is Seattle. They've only had proper restaurants show up in the last decade and they're still putting cole slaw on Mexican food so when it comes to judging the local's tastes defer to the old adage around trustworthiness in press: "Consider the source!"

Fries were limp and very soggy. Potato mush. Same for burger. Soggy bun with thin tasteless patty. Embarrassing that this is a supposed to iconic for Seattle. McDonald's or Burger King far better and cheaper.

Old school burgers, old school price. Which is a plus. Food is served at the window and super quick, I recommend the rootbeer float! Condiments are extra. If the burger doesnt say it comes with ketchup or mustard then it doesn't. You need to add it on. Customer service isn't the friendliest, make sure you order fast and know what you want.

Under seasoned, fast service though. Quick, ready-to-go burgers! 4.8/10 for flavor, might be different if you're drunk.

Please read...honestly very efficient service. I'm talking about walking up at noon during lunch and being out the door in less than 5 minutes. Friendly service and great attitude. Why the 3 stars? Well I really wish I could give them 4 but the burger really has no taste at all..I'm talking no salt Fries we're great but the burger just lacks flavor or condiments. I understand they don't modify but something has to change. Give them a try if u like but i actually didn't even finish the burger

Dick's is a great spot for late night munchies, but it wouldn't be my first choice for burgers and fries. The deluxe burger is a little more than $5, but it only comes with buns, a patty, lettuce, and pickles. If you want onions or ketchup, you have to pay extra for them--and honestly, the burger is pretty bland even with them. The fries were tastier, but everything is made in advance and packaged so that the employees can get you your food as soon as your order. Unfortunately, this means the fries are soggy But, on the upside service is super fast and they're open very late! Again, not my first choice especially knowing that In-n-Out is an option, but good for something fast when it's late.

My wife and I heard about Dick's Drive-In so we decided to walk over there. This place has the old-diner vibe with its outer aesthetics. This place has a lot of parking for people to eat in their cars. For those who do not have a car, can eat at their small public stand-up table. I ordered the Dick's Deluxe ($4.85), which is 1/4 lb. beef patty, cheese, mayo, lettuce, and chopped pickles. The burger was decently wet and sloppy. The flavors were OK, nothing special. The quality of the french fries ($2.85) were similar to college dining common. The Maple Nut flavored Kids Cone ($2.00) was OK, a bit grainy. Dick's Drive-In is a good place for a quick bite to satisfy ones hunger, but nothing beyond that.

Waited 30 minutes in line for them to close without warning. This is not how business should be conducted.

Heck yeah! The hype is real. What better way to spend our last night in Seattle and the last night of our west coast tour than at the iconic Dick's Drive-In. My daughter was insistent that we go here. We walked up to order. Drive thru and walk up only. Inside were about 10 hard-working individuals, making sure everyone got their delicious burgers, French fries,etc.....it didn't stop. We were there for about 30 minutes. The drive thru and walk up was constantly busy the entire time. We ate outside at a stand-up bar. As a newcomer, you have to eat outside to enjoy all the ambiance this part of Seattle brings. We loved it! Dinner with a show for sure. The burgers and fries were delicious. The ice cream was great! The service was lightning fast. The only thing I would change about Dick's would be to have someone come out and wipe down the metal bar areas occasionally. That certainly won't dissuade me from eating here next time I'm in Seattle. This is an institution that can not be missed.

It's always a great place to get some no-frills simple burgers quickly. Sometimes, being simple is all you need, and this place does that. We got some regular cheeseburgers and fries as an early snack before dinner. The regular cheeseburger is what you would expect it to be (similar to McDonald's). Once ordered, I think it was under a minute to get my food. Now that is fast.

Tried Dick's to see if it was as good as people say it is, mainly because so many people compare it to In-n-Out. To be honest they're not comparable in my opinion, they taste different with different systems of operation (Dick's definitely felt more fixed in menu if that makes sense - mainly since you can't really alter your order). Burger was good, the sauce was tasty; it was a little on the greasier side when I tried it. The ice cream here though? FIRE. Loved the coffee one, especially late at night after some partying. Even though lines are long, the service is speedy. The spot is poppin and while there's not much room on the outside, location is pretty convenient considering a bunch of bars and clubs are a few blocks down.

I was recently visiting Seattle for a few days and the place I wanted to try the most was Dick's. There's nothing like a simple, clean, and fresh burger experience devoid of any bougie vibes or pretentiousness. I got to this location in the late afternoon. I loved the simple menu and straightforward ordering experience. There's nowhere to eat besides a small counter in front of the place, so I ate there. I got the Dick's Deluxe ($4.85), fries ($2.65), 2 ketchups ($0.40), and large root beer ($2.50). Total came out to $11.77 with tax included. I guess places in Seattle charge for condiments? I found that weird. Anyways, I got my food and opened up the bag in excitement... Only to be confused. I was wondering if I accidentally ordered a kids meal or something cause everything looked so small. The portion of fries were so little, and there was nothing deluxe at all about the burger. The patties were so small. It was very disorienting and disappointing. I polished off the fries first, and I have to say the flavor on them were pretty good. The fries are more on the thin side, but they were definitely good and far better than plain fries from In and Out. I had the burger next, and I have to say that I really liked the flavor. There was a freshness and simplicity to the burger that was awesome. It's just a pity that I finished it in like two bites. I ended up getting a cheeseburger ($3.03 total) afterwards, and that tasted excellent as well! So I can finally say that I've had the Dick's experience. I loved the food, but I just find it so ridiculous that the portion sizes are so damn small! Something needs to be done about that for real, or they should lower prices to be proportionate, in my opinion.

As a 49er fan, there is no way I can give this place more than 3-stars... but I actually enjoyed their burger and fries. Menu is simple and they don't allow any substitutions. They basically have three burger options, one fry option, four condiments, and a variety of shakes and sodas. I don't understand why they charge separately for condiments, but its only $0.05 so whatever. I got the Dick's Deluxe - which came with two patties, cheese, lettuce, mayo, and chopped pickles. I actually preferred the burger with mustard and ketchup over their signature tarter sauce. Fries were soggy which is actually how I like my fries. Everything was ordered, paid for, and packaged in less than 5minutes, I appreciate the efficiency.

A classic Drive-In with solid burgers and fries, Dick's is a great place to satisfy your burger craving. A friend from Seattle recommended this place to me when I was visiting the area and deemed it the "In-n-Out" of Seattle. I ordered the Dick's Deluxe, fries, and a chocolate milkshake. The burger has a strong pickle flavor, which I actually enjoyed. The fries were a little soggy, but tasted pretty good. In regards to the In-n-Out comparison, I felt that Dick's milkshakes were much better than In-n-Out; in comparison, Dick's had a strong chocolate flavor and was not as thick. Overall, I would recommend stopping by to experience a classic Seattle drive-in!

That is just underwhelming than I expected to be :/ So my girlfriend and her friend picked me up from the Seattle airport.. and I was too damn hungry for some meal. Our friend recommend this as a late night grub. I was excited since its Seattle staple food. I'm from Cali so I'm tired of having IN n Out burger, but damn I do miss IN n Out when I tasted this lol. I ordered their 1/4 pounder Dick's deluxe, which is what a process burger should taste like. It reminds me of McDonald's burgers. I know and see they make it on the house, but wow I tasted the metallic heater of a fast food burger haha. I would eat it cause I'm hungry, but not my cup of tea. I do like their fries and shakes. Those are decent sides and I respect the amount of effort that their employees give.. cause their customer service is as friendly as you can get on a Friday morning 1am lol. PS: Its really mid :/

Was visting Seattle and had to stop by this staple and classic drive-in to see what it's all about. Located at the front of this burger joint was one table to stand at and share with others. However, my family and I decided to drive back to the Space Needle and eat around there while we waited for our reservation since there was definitely ample seating there. Otherwise, the service was fast and efficient, and the menu consisted of minimal items. Just as a note, they also charge for condiments! I ordered some fries and the Deluxe Burger, which had two 1/8 pound grilled patties, cheese, lettuce, mayo, and pickle relish. The fries were yummy, and the meat and bun of the burger was definitely fresh and moist. I thought the burger was solid, pretty standard, and somewhat lacked in flavor for me. I guess I was expecting to be a little more impressed by how it tasted since everyone was telling me to try this place out.

I've been eating at Dick's for decades and always loved it, but haven't been since Covid. What a disappointment! Dick's used to sell a good-sized burger of good quality. No longer. Shrinkflation is in full force at Dick's now. I got the thinnest, smallest burger that I've ever had. The buns are about half the size that we used to get and the patty doesn't even cover the small bun. Where's the beef?! The fries were small and soggy and my shake (served in a very small cup) was only half full. Dick's may be able to survive on their reputation for a while, but serving bite-size hamburgers and nickel-and-diming your customers is going to catch up to them. Huge disappointment and not going back again. I guess greed is everywhere.

For what it is, inexpensive burgers at nearly any hour, Dick's simply cannot be beat. The fries are not for me but the shakes are amazing! All at a great price!

This is a nope for me. This hamburger is what you would get if McDonald's and White Castle had a baby. Not customizable at all. Fries were greasy.
